Learn Thai Massage in Pairs

Thai massage has many health benefits, from lowering stress to relieving muscular tension. It can even increase energy. A good way of visualizing Thai massage is by imagining that someone is arranging the body into different yoga poses. For a Thai massage, the client usually lies on the floor. A licensed massage therapist will slowly work the client's body through various stretches. The therapist may use their hands, knees, legs, or feet to help manipulate the person's body into different positions. Thai massage also uses energy work, which involves applying pressure to specific points on the body to open channels that will improve the flow of energy throughout the body.
